- Add the remaining 1 tablespoon sesame oil to the skillet (if skillet seems very dry, you can also add a little additional canola oil) and return it to MEDIUM heat. Add the carrots, and the white parts of the green onions, and cook, stirring frequently, until the carrots are fork tender, about 2 minutes. Add the garlic and ginger and cook, stirring, until fragrant, 1 minute.
